They left the restaurant when Callisto had finished, she had not missed the looks of distaste as Demetri watched her eat. She didn't take it personally; she had remembered the looks on the Cullen's faces as they would watch her, and Bella eat, and they pretended to push food around on their plates before binning it. Callisto tried to eat quickly, to be somewhat polite to Demetri.
"Was that all appealing?" he asked as they walked through the streets that had quickly become lively.
Callisto shrugged, "It was good, a little to heavy on the coconut milk but good".
"It certainly didn't smell appetizing" he muttered under his breath but loud enough so she could catch what he was saying. "Don't you miss it? Food I mean" she asked. Demetri stopped with his eyes forward. "Sorry, I'm asking you a lot of questions you don't have to answer them" she said. Demetri quickly shook his head "I don't mind" he said turning to face her. "I don't miss food; I can't even remember what any of it tastes like now" he said. She tilted her head "you've tasted dirt" she teased. This made Demetri smile at her, and Callisto felt her heart flutter.
"Come, if we cut across the park, we'll be right in front of your hotel" he said offering her his arm. "How did you?.. never mind" she said quickly remembering Demetri's gift. She slipped her arm into Demetri's and allowed him to lead her back to the hotel.
They walked mostly in silence, Callisto tried to supress the shiver as she was now starting to regret taking Demetri's arm, he was freezing, and the cold Seattle air wasn't helping much either but she didn't want to let go. Demetri frowned and looked down at her and let go of her, Callisto felt he heart clench uncomfortably. As he shrugged off his expensive looking coat, and "turn around" he said looking down. Callisto blinked and did as he asked, as gently as possible Demetri slid his jacket onto her arms before briefly touching her shoulders. "Thank you" she said turning back to face him.
She watched him for a moment, loud sirens rang through the quiet night air as Callisto turned to look at the ambulance and several police cars follow it tearing up the road. She bit her bottom lip as her mind went back to what Demetri had told her the other day. Demetri's hands squeezed her arms "Come on let's get you back to the hotel, darling" he mumbled, his hand making its way down her arm to wrap around her hand.
"Well here we are, darling" Demetri said as they stood outside the elevators that went up to the rooms. Callisto insisted that she could walk herself in and Demetri insisted he at least walk her to the elevators.
She bit her bottom lip, "why do you call me that?" she said, "I have a name you know."
Demetri smiled and leaned down and pressed his lips against her forehead "Kalinixta Callisto" and then just as the elevators doors opened he swiftly turned and walked away, she stood there a little dumbfounded as she held onto his jacket which was still on her shoulders. She leaned against the elevator wall and looked down at her feet.
Freya sat cross legged on the bed as Callisto entered the hotel room she grinned widely "Soo how was it?" she asked as she wiggled her brows. Callisto smiled "it was nice" she noticed her mother's smile "and highly informative, I'm sure next year I'll have lots of friends" she said clearing her throat as she quickly hurried to the bathroom.
"Come on I want details" her mother hollered after her as she shut the bathroom door. "Come on Cal," she called.
UPDATED I fixed it, I have no idea what happened or how all the script or whatever that was got in because it wasn't there when I uploaded it. Thank you to the person who pointed it out.
